The dazzling brilliance and the explosion of iron chains intertwined like fireworks, with flying figures, ghostly chain shadows swirling, and the ominous descent of dusk.

In the chaos, a burly man pulled a fellow sect member for a daring leap, and the man who was dragged out turned back to look at another caught in the chaos, exclaiming, "Senior Brother, save Junior Brother!"

The burly man who had pulled someone into the air glanced back, seeing a fellow sect member struggling as his clothes caught fire after being ensnared. He immediately let go and shouted, "Break it with me!"

He punched his chest and flicked his fingers like swords toward the sky, instantly releasing dark red talismans that flew around him, then striking toward the chaotic iron chains below that resembled monster tentacles.

Dark red talismans burst forth with crimson light, shooting out like streams of light, striking the flame-energy iron chains with loud explosions. The shockwaves disturbed weaker cultivators amid the chaos, but failed to break the chains, and the energy undulated towards the source of the chains, the Blood Stele, its power absorbed.

This was the most terrifying aspect for those entangled in the chaos. Some were quite confident in their Earth Immortal realm cultivation, yet upon being ensnared, found themselves unable to break free, compounded by searing heat, doubling their fear.

Zhu Xiangxin hadn't expected that the chains, once easily broken under the hands of Tong Mingshan and An Wuzhi, could hold so many, and thus her confidence soared.

The talisman-wielding man was slightly surprised; the explosive power of the fifth-grade Mountain-breaking Talisman, comparable to a strike in the Earth Immortal Great Success Realm, couldn't break these unreal iron chains. This strike should be far superior to the Thunder Sound Sect's Chongxing's thunderous strike. Why could that thunder break through, while his Mountain-breaking Talisman's power was ineffectual?

If one strike fails, then unleash more strikes. He cast another spell to break through, and immediately streams of red talismans transformed into tail flame meteors, endlessly bombarding.

The nearby junior brother didn't remain idle, and did the same, unleashing red talismans to rescue their fellow sect member.

But failing to find the method, hopeless sorrow ensued.

Under the barrage, not only did they fail to break the flame-energy chains and rescue their fellow member, but they attracted the attention of other chains, two more entwined and dragged the struggling person toward the rushing Blood Stele, pulling them inside in an instant.

"Junior Brother!" The two exclaimed in unison, then unleashed a relentless barrage of red talismans on the Blood Stele as if money were no object, detonating whirlwinds of flame sparks, yet essentially failing to budge it.

But the two continued their frantic rescue, driving talismans to bombard madly; there was no choice, given prior experiences, those pulled into the Blood Stele all ceased to react, with no signs of movement from the stele, likely an extermination Big Killer Weapon!

This was something Zhu Xiangxin hadn't anticipated initially, never expecting those drawn into the 'Fire Prison God Suppression Stele' to be helpless as headless flies, unable to unlock or find an exit. This emboldened her to raise the Blood Stele and rush in to seize people.

Not to mention her, even Tong Mingshan and An Wuzhi, who originally intended to intervene, were left dumbfounded, never expecting Zhu Xiangxin to be so formidable, this 'Fire Prison God Suppression Stele' usually considered by Zhu Xiangxin as an Alchemy Furnace.

They recalled Zhu Xiangxin blissfully telling them that while the Fire Prison God Suppression Stele isn't useful for fighting, it's superb for Alchemy, eliminating traditional furnace drawbacks, with fire control said to be effortless and precise.

She even mentioned feeling like refining the stele to expand its containing capacity, potentially melting entire mountains and rivers into essence wouldn't be impossible.

This left Tong Mingshan envious, wondering if for artifact refining, utilizing such a large space for creating massive items would be extremely effective. The grand space used for Alchemy seemed a bit wasteful.

However, fate wasn't his to command. When several Fire Attribute Skills were offered, the Master first gave him priority to select, yet 'Fire Prison Suppression Divine Power' proved unsuitable, simply put, difficult for him to master.

Understanding Zhu Xiangxin's background heightened their suspicion; how could this 'Alchemy Furnace' be so useful for fighting?

Soon, their eyes shifted elsewhere. Two figures had floated in from afar, hovering outside the battlefield, observing without intervening, seeking to understand the situation first.

This put Tong Mingshan and An Wuzhi on high alert. Judging by their speed, they knew these were experts with cultivation far exceeding theirs, and their battle armor color revealed they were from another team.

Mulan Qingqing immediately recognized one as Yan Zhili from the Su Yuan Sect, well aware of his terrifying prowess. If Yan Zhili acted, Zhu Xiangxin might not have the chance to counter, his mere thought could erase her.

Not that Zhu Xiangxin lacked strength, merely their attack styles differed, with Yan Zhili positioned to obliterate Zhu Xiangxin before she realized it.

Even Tong Mingshan and An Wuzhi were likely no match against Yan Zhili's whim.

Yan Zhili's slightly skewed Dharma Eye noticed Mulan Qingqing on the island, frowning slightly.

Meanwhile, on the fiercely contested battlefield, not only was Chongxing, cloaked in lightning, anxiously snatching people, but his junior brother Tie Anfeng and junior sister Qu Xiaoxiao were equally relentless, their body lightning variedly crackled in and out as they bombarded fire chains.

A figure emerged from below the Blood Stele, it was Zhu Xiangxin, who charged directly into the Blood Stele to pilot.
